Netanyahu: Peace Through Strength, Hamas Must Disarm | JQJO

Benjamin Netanyahu told CBS he’s ready to “give peace a chance” after Hamas freed the last 20 living hostages and Israel withdrew from parts of Gaza—the first phase of a peace plan brokered by President Trump. He defended the painful release of nearly 2,000 Palestinian prisoners, claimed a civilian-to-combatant death ratio under 2-to-1, while Gaza’s health ministry reports nearly 70,000 dead. He warned Hamas must disarm or “all hell breaks loose,” said Gaza’s governance would be technocratic under a board including Trump and Tony Blair, rejected an independent Palestinian state, and urged ending the war quickly.
